Today, let's take a look at the drugs that may cause depression for you. Introverted sensitivity makes it easier to attract children. Depression is a common mental disorder characterized by a persistent state of low mood. Medical research has found that certain drugs are also an important factor that cannot be ignored in causing depression, and drug-induced depression is called drug-induced depression. Drug induced depression often occurs within a few days to two years of medication. The larger the dosage, the more likely depression is to occur; After reducing the dosage, although the condition can be relieved, re medication can also induce depression. Especially for patients with sensitive and introverted personalities, they are more prone to developing the disease. Its typical manifestations are restlessness, restlessness, irritability, lack of confidence, sleep disorders, and in severe cases, even suicidal tendencies. Of course, not everyone taking certain medications can induce depression. The occurrence of drug-induced depression depends on the patient's individual quality, family history of mental illness, dosage, and duration of medication. These drugs can affect emotions, and some antihypertensive drugs contain compound preparations of reserpine, such as Anda Xueping tablets, Xinjiang tablets, Jiangya Jing tablets, Maishu Jing tablets, etc., which may induce drug-induced depression. As early as the 1950s, there were reports that reserpine could cause depression. Some psychotropic drugs that can easily induce depression include antipsychotic drugs and other medications. Multiple antipsychotic drugs can cause depression, such as chlorpromazine, haloperidol, long-acting fluphenazine, and other manic drugs used to treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders. Other drugs such as some antiarrhythmic drugs, contraceptives (oral), hormones, thyroid drugs, anti tuberculosis drugs, various drug poisoning or drug withdrawal reactions, analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-tumor drugs, etc. can also cause drug-induced depression. Discovering signs of medically induced depression should be promptly addressed as it has a certain degree of concealment. If patients experience related depressive symptoms or worsen existing depressive symptoms after taking medication, attention should be paid. Once any signs are detected, the medication should be stopped and the variety of medication adjusted in a timely manner under the guidance of a doctor. Drug induced depression is generally treated with medication and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Among them, drug therapy is the most important method and must be carried out under the guidance of specialized doctors. Cognitive behavioral therapy belongs to the category of psychotherapy, and patient families can cooperate with doctors or seek help from psychological counselors. Cognitive behavioral therapy is the use of psychological counseling to help patients increase their confidence in overcoming the disease and alleviate or alleviate symptoms of depression as soon as possible.
